About ArtScience Museum

It’s where the future is imagined.

ArtScience Museum is an iconic cultural landmark in Singapore. Our mission is to explore where art, science, culture and technology come together. It is here at the intersection of art and science that innovation and new ideas are formed.

Our Iconic Building

Our Iconic Building

Designed by renowned architect Moshe Safdie, the lotus-inspired ArtScience Museum has been called “The Welcoming Hand of Singapore” by Mr Sheldon Adelson, the chairman of Las Vegas Corp.

The building’s form is made up of 10 ‘fingers’ anchored by a unique round base in the middle. The design of each finger reveals different gallery spaces and the skylights at the ‘fingertips’ dramatically illuminate the curved interior walls.

The Museum’s roof channels rainwater through the central atrium of the building creating a 35m water drop into a small, reflecting pool. The collected rainwater is recycled for use in the building.

Testimonials

  • "One of the coolest things I’ve seen. Incredible variety of material"

    - Feedback on Feynman exhibition, from a visitor in the survey, January 2019

  • "It could not be more appropriate that the ArtScience Museum in Singapore produces this wonderful exhibition on Richard Feynman's work. The Nobel Museum in Stockholm is very proud to collaborate with ArtScience Museum – a unique institution in the world – on this project."

    - Olov Amelin, Director of Nobel Museum, on the Feynman exhibition, January 2019

  • "There [has never] been a show that has gone to such lengths to draw connections between minimalism, eastern religion and philosophy, or between art and science."

    - The Sydney Morning Herald review on Minimalism, Feb 2019

  • “I really appreciate what you’ve done with this exhibition. Your exhibition will catalyse tens of thousands of conversations, and those conversations are the first step in creating connections that will enable our resiliency.”

    - Ariel Muller, Director, Forum for the Future, on 2219, November 2019
